The competition had to go into a brief timeout because of Zhang's attempt, and the referee was very humane at this time, and he did not rush the next athlete to the court. A score of more than 18 meters does take some time to celebrate, not to mention that it is the host who jumps this achievement.

The first two attempts ended in failure, while the third attempt was a direct one-jump victory, and the psychological satisfaction brought by this kind of Jedi comeback is really unparalleled. This kind of tension, this kind of excitement, this kind of reversal, is also the greatest charm of sports.

In front of the TV, those supporters of Zhang Guan showed a relieved expression, and the TV broadcasters of various countries also turned on the "congratulations" mode, in everyone's opinion, the 18.10 meters is indeed enough to win the championship, and Zhang Guan is only a matter of time before the gold medal is in hand.

In the studio of the British TV station, Edwards, who originally looked a little embarrassed, finally smiled at this time, while the host next to him looked at Edwards with admiration.

"Your judgment is really too accurate, although the first two attempts, Zhang Guan ended in failure, but he jumped 18.10 meters in the third attempt, he has surpassed Harrison's 18.09 meters, he has become the second farthest jumper in this event, second only to you!" The moderator said to Edwards.

"Yes, I'm under a lot of pressure right now, this is Zhang Guan's third attempt, he still has three more chances, I think he will definitely hit the world record in the next competition. Maybe my world record in the triple jump is about to be lost. Edwards laughed self-deprecatingly.

"I don't think so, the world record you hold is 18.29 meters, if Zhang Guan wants to break this world record, he has to jump an extra 20 centimeters, which is simply impossible." The host made a very exaggerated expression.

Edwards shrugged his shoulders, smiled slightly, and said: "If it were someone else, it might be unlikely that Zhang Guan was undoubtedly the most talented athlete in the world, he only used one attempt to exceed 18 meters, and now he has three more chances to try the jump, maybe it is really possible to surpass me!" ”

……

Portugal's Evora looked at the number "18.10" on the electronic monitor, his eyes full of despair.

At the moment, he was still rejoicing at Zhang Guan's failure in his first two attempts, and he was still looking forward to this Olympic gold medal, but now, he knew that this Olympic gold medal was far away from him.

Although Evola was temporarily in third place, she was not worried. Britain's Adouu is 17.62m and Bahamian Santz is 17.59m, and with Evola's level, he can easily surpass both figures.

However, 18.10m, which is an unattainable result for Évora, whose all-time best is 17.74m, is simply not capable of jumping over the 18m mark, let alone 18.10m. Even with Evora's best efforts, he is still a long way from this achievement.

A few days ago, in the long jump final, Zhang Guan also surpassed Saladino, but Saladino did not give up, even when Zhang Guan broke the world record in the long jump, Saladeno still had the idea of giving it a go. That's because Saladino has also jumped out of close results in his usual practice.

And Evola has never jumped more than 18 meters even in his usual training. So he had no idea of continuing to challenge Zhang Guan, and he decided to withdraw from the gold medal competition.

Great Britain's Adouu had a worse start than Evora, as he had previously finished first among all competitors. He was in high spirits, waiting for the upcoming fourth round of the jump, but a result of more than 18 meters suddenly came, not only because he was squeezed into second place, but also because he was facing a result that he could never beat.

Of course, the most depressed at this time was the Russian player Spasokhovsky, who happened to be in eighth place and could participate in the fourth attempt, but now he has lost the opportunity to continue the competition, and no one feels sorry for him, and no one even notices that he has been eliminated, because all eyes are on Zhang Guan.

……

After three rounds of attempts, the top eight competitors have been decided and re-ranked according to their results, but at this time there is no suspense about the ownership of the champion, because no one can jump the 18-meter mark except Zhang Guan.

The fourth round of the trial jump began, for the other competitors, although there is no hope of gold medal, but still have to fight for a silver or bronze medal in the Olympic Games, the audience is excited, the carnival has consumed too much of their energy, and now these athletes, compared with the 18.10 meters of the results, is indeed too far away.

Portugal's Evora jumped 17.67m, overtaking Adouu and Sants to move into second place. And Eduu, who came out in the penultimate game, seemed to be still affected by the last attempt, and stepped on the line and fouled on the fourth attempt.

The top seven competitors have finished their test jumps, and then it is Zhang Guan's turn to appear, and after a few minutes of rest, the audience has also recovered some strength, and they began to give Zhang Guan the warmest applause.

Zhang Guan has already skipped 18 meters, the Olympic gold medal has been secured, he has broken the Olympic record in the triple jump, so next, he only has one goal left, which is the world record!

Some people remember that three days ago, in the same venue, Zhang Guan broke the world record in the long jump event.

Some people remember that since the start of the Olympic track and field competition, Zhang Guan has participated in every track and field final, he has broken the world record.

"Will Zhang Guan break the world record in the triple jump?" Someone involuntarily asked

"Yes, he will, now he will definitely hit the world record in the triple jump!"

"World record! Record! Record! Record! ”

I don't know who took the lead in shouting these four words first, and gradually, the audience also shouted in unison.

Countless people looked at Zhang Guan with expectant eyes, they had already guessed that Zhang Guan would challenge the world record next, and they felt that Zhang Guan would definitely be able to do it.

Zhang Guan stood in the running area, he slowly adjusted his breathing, and at the same time he looked at the flat sand pool in the distance, but his heart became more and more calm.

His goal is indeed a world record.

Zhang Guan had three chances to break the world record, but he didn't want to waste one of them, he wanted to succeed once.

"World record, I'm coming!" Zhang Guan strengthened his thoughts, and at the same time he began to run.

He turned into an arrow, rushed forward, and leaped high.

One arc, two arcs, three arcs, three perfect jumps, he fell into the sand pool. Immediately afterwards, there was an exclamation at the scene.

In the sand pit, the leftmost end of the trail had clearly exceeded the 18-meter mark, and was far behind 18.10 meters. Zhang Guan's performance in this attempt was much better than the last time. And the white qi raised by the referee also told everyone again that this was a successful test jump.

"More than 18 meters! Jumped the 18-meter mark twice in a row. ”

"Zhang Guan jumped 18.10 meters last time, and this time it is even farther than the last time!"

"It seems to have crossed the 18.30-meter marking"

"Over 18.30 meters? Wouldn't that break the world record of 18.29 meters in the triple jump! (To be continued.) )
